Listening Post - Testing times for Egypt's media

2013-08-02 21

Why has the Egyptian media landscape become increasingly polarised after Morsi's ouster? This week, our News Divide explores the media aftermath of the Egyptian coup. Our weekly feature takes us as close as the media can get to the infamous military-run prison at Guantanamo Bay – a place where inmates are held not only in legal limbo, but also in media quarantine. The Listening Post's Nic Muirhead examines how far the US government will go to keep Guantanamo invisible and its inmates faceless, even while journalists and campaigners fight to bring their stories to light.
